There are too many Pokeballs/ATs... it's beyond belief. The chances of getting the same 2 in a row are IMPLOSSAUSIBLE.

That is a great pokemon especially if you have a character that many people can't use.

Like Ness Smilie

And if Sonic is really fast and hard to control, I'm willing to bet someone who isn't used to him wont like it.

I'm assuming it'll make the thrower's body swap with the next player closest.

Yeah, that's actually the best thing I can compare it with.

I can't see why not either. Definitey in Friend Matches at least.

Spiggin awsome! Its gonna be so interesting to see what people would do?!?!

I see all these people insulting the Nintendo corporation because of the lack of mature content. Yet there is something about Nintendo (at least their games) that strikes a certain unadulterated feeling of joy!!!  Pokemon Y - 1048-9263-5562

That's one of the best additions yet in my opinion. It'll make it really fun and interesting.
Doe sit only affect the person that threw it (and one other)though? What if four people are in the area do they all swap with somebody?

The funniest switch i could imagine would be in a Bowser cerse Fox match, super slow and insanely fast

I would think this would affect the two people closest to the pokemon, not necessarily the person that threw the pokeball.

Smilie That would be AWESOME, heart swap! It would be SO CONFUSING if you are just introducing someone to brawl for the 1st time!!! SmilieSmilieSmilieSmilie Hilarious.

Can brawl anytime now.....if you want an easy win

Well if my theory about the hearts representing the users is correct. Then a situation may occur where you do major damage to your opponent, but you don't KO them. Now if the hearts switch back. Will you have that same damage that you just caused to your opponent while they were using your character?Smilie
